Title: browning on cream uph.
Post by: edward coller on May 20, 2017, 08:34:31 pm

Cleaned a cnr group in a thick, light colour cloth and customer rang up and on viewing there is some areas of brown lines on some of cushions that I cleaned  slightly harder than others on the outside edge of panels, . I belive, and hope this is browning from cellulose in fabric , but would appreciate your thoughts and poss remedies. Thanks Simon

What was it cleaned with? Sounds like browning where the fabric has stayed wetter longer. Browning prescription should shift it if not try an oxidiser. Test first though.
